This book was released on 1971 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new class of collision-dependent electron waves is found in a non-Maxwellian Lorentz magnetoplasma, and it is shown that electron-neutral collisions may cause these waves to become unstable. The Boltzmann equation with collision integral is solved while assuming propagation to be either parallel or perpendicular to the magnetic field. Both conductivity tensors are derived and put in a form that is useful for numerical calculations. The full set of Maxwell's equations is then used to derive the dispersion relations for both directions of propagation. The dispersion relations are initially solved for a monoenergetic electron distribution function and then an isotropic distribution with a peak of nonzero half-width is treated. Some consideration is also given to an isotropic Maxwellian distribution both with and without a bump on the tail. As an example of propagation parallel to the magnetic field, transverse electromagnetic or "whistler" waves in a nitrogen plasma are considered. A new collisional mode is found with real frequency near the electron cyclotron frequency, and under appropriate conditions it may be either convectively or absolutely unstable. Longitudinal or electrostatic waves propagating perpendicular to the magnetic field in a nitrogen plasma are also considered. A series of new collisional modes with real frequency near the electron cyclotron frequency and its harmonics are shown to be unstable under some conditions. For both directions of propagation, the electron waves can be unstable if a large fraction of plasma electrons have their velocity in a region where the electron-neutral collision frequency increases (or decreases) rapidly enough. The requirement on the electron-neutral collision frequency is easily met by nitrogen, mercury, and the Ramsauer gases.
Download or read book Cyclotron Waves in Plasma written by D. G. Lominadze and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyclotron Waves in Plasma is a four-chapter text that covers the basic physical concepts of the theory of cyclotron waves and cyclotron instabilities, brought about by the existence of steady or alternating plasma currents flowing perpendicular to the magnetic field. This book considers first a wide range of questions associated with the linear theory of cyclotron oscillations in equilibrium plasmas and in electron plasmas in metals and semiconductors. The next chapter deals with the parametric excitation of electron cyclotron oscillations in plasma in an alternating electric field. A chapter focuses on plasma turbulence, which results from the development of cyclotron instabilities. The last chapter discusses pertinent experimental data concerning cyclotron waves in plasma. The book is intended for specialists in plasma physics and a number of related fields, including the physics of the ionosphere, solar wind and, metals, as well as for students and teachers who are specializing in these subjects.

Download or read book Kinetic Theory of Plasma Waves written by Marco Brambilla and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with the propagation and absorption of high frequency waves in plasmas. The text collects in a structured and self-contained way the basic knowledge on the broad and varied behavior of plasma waves, adopting the microscopic kinetic description of the plasma as unifying principle. The internal coherence of the theory is explicitly stressed, and interesting physical phenomena peculiar to plasmas are discussed in detail, including collisionless damping of waves, the development of stochasticity in the interactions of charged particles with electromagnetic waves, and nonlinear interactions between waves. The most common and useful approximations used in solving practical problems are derived as special cases from the more general kinetic approach, thereby clarifying their meaning and domain of applicability. This exposition should be useful to plasma physicists both as an introduction and a reference to this field of research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Divided into three main parts, the book guides the reader to an understanding of the basic concepts in this fascinating field of research. Part 1 introduces you to the fundamental concepts of simulation. It examines one-dimensional electrostatic codes and electromagnetic codes, and describes the numerical methods and analysis. Part 2 explores the mathematics and physics behind the algorithms used in Part 1. In Part 3, the authors address some of the more complicated simulations in two and three dimensions. The book introduces projects to encourage practical work Readers can download plasma modeling and simulation software — the ES1 program — with implementations for PCs and Unix systems along with the original FORTRAN source code. Now available in paperback, Plasma Physics via Computer Simulation is an ideal complement to plasma physics courses and for self-study.
